Don’t worry, I don’t think you are. I just think there’s a reason they admitted so easily. Probably just another calculated fallout to save all their other brands from their own mini backlash which would ultimately cause more damage.
But yes, the whole industry is a dumpster fire when it comes to regulations and also lobbying.
I mean they also own like half the industry. So, I don’t feel particularly bad for them to be honest.
Honestly, as much as I would like that as the next guy… I doubt they would’ve gotten anywhere close to engagement in the range of 400 comments sadly.
When it comes to reach this is still not the place to be. Now, how meaningful the comments are? That’s a different question.
Organic Maps is by far the best client imho and it has a special outdoor layer when on trails.
I mean they did also inject affiliate links without the users noticing which is really shady behaviour from a browser because it has one job, open the link I click and nothing else. But that’s just IMHO if that is acceptable for you personally then there is no issue with that.
Just leaving this here for everyone! This browser extension saved me a lot of hassle so many times. We need to stop paying where possible and this is the convenient legal way for a lot of papers out there: https://unpaywall.org/
Definitely, she has served me like the absolute beast she is. To this day the card actually deserves very admirable even in modern titles. The next destination might actually be my roommates PC who’se still running a 960 which is pretty lackluster these days with 2 GB of VRAM.
Absolutely it’s been mostly rock solid. I do however plan on switching to Wayland. Since that will now be doable with AMD graphics it might still be a pain with Gnome 42 so depending on my impatience I might not wait till Pop!_OS 24.04.
Pop!_OS atm but hopping in the future is not out of question since this was my first and only distro on this device for a few years now. I just was too lazy so far to try out new things.
Thanks, I think I’ve read something about LACT once but it wasn’t relevant back then. Certainly looks like the tool to use to tune my card :)
Just to clarify, I use Pop!_OS and not Fedora Ublue. I looked at their Wiki because they are the only ones who had documentation on how they made hw accel work with Flatpak and Nvidia specifically. More exaclty I was led there by this Reddit post.
AFAIK it should work fine with AMD since Firefox can use the VA-API FFmpeg Flatpak to provide hw accel which should work fine with AMD GPUs. This does however not support Nvidia GPUs, which is why you have to expose the driver in the sandbox and force Firefox to try to use it etc.
Mesa drivers for opengl, vulkan, etc. are likely already installed, what you need to install are the mesa-va and mesa-vdpau drivers for video acceleration. Other than that, you just need to make sure the GPU doesn’t stay in power saving mode when you play.
Thanks, I’ll make sure to install those for sure then.
Btw, video acceleration with Nvidia mostly works if you use this.
You know, I actually tried, and I couldn’t get hardware acceleration working in the Firefox Flatpak for the love of god. I tried everything, all the guides, looked at the Ublue documentation how they did it etc. and in the end I decided it’s just not worth it because playback worked fine without, just with a wee bit higher CPU usage.
!linkedinlunatics@sh.itjust.works back at it again with some more AI bs.
From what he said in the video it’s a few things.
Firstly, they keep being disappointed with the performance. They somehow have to market devices that barely improve performance and battery wise at all. One of his sources called the new generation a waste of sand and said the writing is on the wall, it’s time for 50/50 Intel/AMD.
Secondly, apparently Intel has been very bad with communication leaving OEMs in the dark. That means sometimes they get information very late in the design process hindering their ability to get work done in time and other times they have get delays over and over again. I think that was a big issue with their discrete graphics.
This last one wasn’t mentioned in the video but look at the recent desktop fiasco. Intel gave MB manufacturers a spec, which they adhered to, that now causes stability issues. Their solution, changing the spec and saying motherboards pushed the power envelope to far. Hell I’d be pissed too.
On top of that as you mentioned Intel CPUs keep having new vulnerabilities because it seems Intel can’t improve performance anymore without trickery that causes problems down the line. I mean some CPU generations have lost over 50% performance since release because of exploit mitigations.
If the leaks from MLID are to be believed this generation around a lot of OEMs should offer way more AMD options because they’re sick of Intels BS.
Yes, BUT the first CAMM was proprietary to DELL. This is what came from them giving the standard to JEDEC. So not all hope is lost!
I never actually tried myself, but it seems like the documentation certainly could be improved. I saw that they provide a Docker compose, so perhaps that could be of help if you didn’t use that the last time around. They are currently in the process of cleaning up the projects to make things more maintainable and easier to get an overview, so let’s hope things might improve a bit. I think for me personally, this certainly seems like the most promising Discord replacement because it feels like a set and get solution for non-techy people trying to switch instead of relearning everything like with Matrix.
Revolt is self-hostable. It isn’t E2EE but if you’re controlling the users anyways transport encryption should be enough since you have control over the data anyway.
I reported basically this issue a few months back with another Lenovo device. Sadly there was no other activity towards resolving this.
Maybe you can bring in some new information if you can confirm, that you have the same issue.
In essence the hover recognition distance greatly reduces when touch input is present causing these jumps to happen with the palm because when writing any lifting off the pen will reactivate touch.
Yea but many of them were involved. The Audi CEO at the time was on the board making the decision and the first to be convicted.
